Casually pondering life in the kitchen. but actually. i swear the best conversations happen there! ok, so real talk— i’m someone who likes to know why. i want to figure out why things happen the way they do and what the purpose is behind it. i like to analyze both people and situations. i also tend to get stuck on the future more times than not. for the most part these are to a fault. it’s a way of trying to be in control. if i can figure out why and plan for the what, i’ll never have to get hurt again! well that’s what i used to think anyway. but i’m learning there aren’t always reasons. and that’s something i’ve had a hard time accepting. however, i’m also learning that some of the best things in life don’t make sense. whether that’s because on paper it doesn’t exactly line up or because it wasn’t what you had originally planned for. either way— it works out. and those unexpected blessings are what make the not knowing okay. letting go and trusting in the process is hard. i’m living through that right now. but if you don’t let go and have faith you could miss out on what’s right in front of you. whether that’s because you were stuck on looking back or obsessed with looking forward. be present but also remember that the worst move you could make would be to not move at all. risk. it’s a part of it all. so know that life will fall into place, even if it doesn’t make sense. and do not let fear stop you. ever. keep moving and jump in. then keep floating along even though you don’t know where the water is going to take you next. xo- demri
